This course is ideal for those working up to Yachtmaster or Advanced Powerboat and candidates should have a basic understanding of the navigation and the collision regulations.

'Happy Days' is a luxury 46 ft motor yacht available for private charter in Antigua for a half or full day
Fully air-conditioned & equipped with a state of the art sound system, Flat screen smart TV and a capacity of 12. A fully operational galley, one state room with full head with showers and two cabins – plenty to sleep friends and/or family. You have full access to water toys (inflatables, paddle boards, snorkels) and tender when required.
Our boat's home is the beautiful and historical area of Jolly Harbour whose cafes, bars, beaches, shops and restaurants you can enjoy happily either before or after your trip. But we can, by prior arrangement, also collect guests either by taxi from your hotels or villas or from other accessible water points.
A Half Day cruise allows you 4 hours enjoyment out on the water which could involve, for example, a snorkeling trip to Cades Reef and a swim at a secluded white sand West Coast beach.
A full day (10am - 4pm) allows you plenty of time to enjoy the best Antigua has to offer taking in its exquisite beaches, remote islands, underwater wildlife and some fabulous on board dining.
For more information on this specific vessel you can contact [email protected]
RocknRolla is a 40 ft motor cruiser capable of carrying 12 guests with ease . She is extremely spacious with areas for lazing in the sun or shade and enjoying the wonderful waters around English and Falmouth Harbours or further afield up the West Coast, or to Green Island. There is a swim platform at the back, allowing for easy access to and from the water.
As with all Ondeck trips we try to get you involved, so if you would like to try some boat handling and maybe a training course the opportunity is there.
An open bar is available and on full day charters we include a local lunch in the price with premium options available.
Great value at $1080 for a day up to 6 people [+$120pp above this] and $680 for a half day [+$100 above this].

We offer half day and full day charters. Half days can be morning (9am - 1pm) or afternoon (1.30pm - 5.30pm) and a full day is typically 9am - 5 pm. As a training school we encourage guests to take part in all aspects of sailing the yacht but if chilling out is your thing then no problem!
The yacht is a 40ft sailing yacht that can take 6 guests comfortably up to a maximum of 8. From our base in English Harbour the area is both historic and dramatic. A half day would allow a sail to Carlisle Bay for example and a swim and drink stop. On a full day you can get further up the west coast or to Green Island.
Itineraries are weather dependent. Cost is $525 for a half and $980 for a full day for up to 4 persons.

We do offer own boat tuition and it can be very popular as it allows you to still achieve RYA qualifications in a familiar environment.
It can be useful to those who have just got a new vessel or for students who wish to improve any aspect of their skills. We can either follow the RYA syllabus for whichever course is most appropriate or we can offer ad hoc training at your own pace from 1 day to week
It is also popular with families and we can do a mix of Day Skipper and Competent Crew students or, for more advanced students, RYA Yachtmaster Offshore.
Your vessel must meet basic safety standards which we can run through and advise on.
Cost is US $385 per day plus any training materials and this covers from 1-5 students.
